"You're like a serial killer in prison!" // "Women marry them all the time!"

He says he's changed, but as we'll see, he hasn't yet, not really, or not enough. Anything not evil he does is done either because he likes beating up demons, or for the sake of Buffy. Drusilla's appearance cements that point clearly - he's ready to kill again when she's around.

"Pre'y Spoike." So. How's that accent working out for you?

Drusilla's trying so hard not to laugh in Harmony's face. This is kind of amazing.

Spike and Dru did always have fantastic physical chemistry. The way they move with each other, sometimes barely touching, but gliding together. It's cool to watch, and a reminder of how they were both cast in the first place.

Oh Spike's vamp grill. Haven't seen that in a while.

Pretty sure Spike's crypt's lower level is bigger than Buffy's house.

"You can't love without a soul." // "Oh we can, you know. We can love quite well. If not wisely." Dru went all Shakespeare.

Further evidence of Spike's current lack of understanding - offering to kill Drusilla? Also not the way to Buffy's heart.

"The only chance you had with me was when I was unconscious." Spike's lack of understanding at first is kind of hilarious.

JM is great in this ep, but man is Spike fucking up left and right.

Yes, Spike, blame Dru, that's also a good move.

"This, with you, is wrong. I know it. Not a complete idiot."

Okay but it's kind of hilarious that while he's yelling at his two paramours, Harmony comes back and shoots him with an arrow. I really do love Harmony, even if a little goes a long way with her (she's kind of like Andrew that way)

So question mark. That arrow would have killed any vampire who wasn't a regular on this show, yes? Spike, owner of the tiniest heart known to vampirekind.

Question mark the second: Why does Buffy not go after Dru or Harmony? They're both evil vampires and not neutered like Spike is. She should stake all three of them.

I mean, that being said, I'm glad she didn't. But it's probably also good the Council and Giles weren't here to witness it.

JM is so good at the realization that he's been uninvited.

I aced my mime final.

Suggestion: If we stop watching with this episode, then Joyce never dies, right? Right? That's how it works, right?

Daniel's Thoughts:

Bronze: Anya dances like a spazz.

She dances like me!

Aww, all the couples are dancing and Buffy is sitting alone.

I like his new brown leather jacket.

While I like Buffy’s meangirl attitude against Spike, she’s such a hypocrite. She’s always asking him for favors; she even told the council that he’s one of her friends….sort of. I don’t really know how they went over to interview him.

Of course the train’s last stop is Sunnydale.

Why is Giles babysitting?

Ugh, Harmony dressing up as Buffy for sexroleplay is creepy but also funny.

Zelda is excited that the newspaper confirmed her body count.

Why is Spike dressed like he’s in post-apocalyptic military garb?

Either that or he's an extra on Star Trek

Ew, why does Dawn all of a sudden have a crush on Spike. “You talk to me like I understand things…”. Oh, that’s why. Understandable-ish.

I do like that Spike is telling Dawn super scary stories that are also true. Because we all should remember that Spike is a psychopathic killer.

And yes Buffy still comes to him for help.

He does not have cool hair, Dawn.

Dawn’s the only one that notices Spike’s ‘crush’.

It’s creepy that Buffy just sat in taped outline of one of the bodies.

Miss Edith! Did the police not find that when they were clearing the train car?

Vampires love Jiffy Pop.

Coincidentally, Zelda just made some popcorn

Drusilla!

Thanks for the recap of Angel, Spike.

Drusilla is so amused by Harmony. I love it.

What the heeeeeellll is Willow wearing?

Is she that cold? Does she dress in the dark? What the ever loving hell?

And what the hell are the waitresses at the Bronze wearing?

Did they rename The Bronze to The Silver?
Get it? Get it? Silver? Get it?

Hey Spike’s a pretty good artist. Like Angel.

“You’ve taken my chair and the music hasn’t stopped.” I love Dru.

I feel like Spike was the first guy who shouted, “Why don’t bitches like me? I’m a nice guy.”

SMG looks like she can just pull her hands through those cuffs. They’re so big

She's just playing with him. She can get out at any time.

Sarah Michelle Gellar’s headshot is amongst the pictures Spike has.

Crossfire!

Dawn: [Spike]'s got cool hair.Daniel: He does not have cool hair.Zelda: Yes he does.Dawn: (continuing) Right, that's why you were never with Angel for three years.Daniel: Angel has cool hair.Zelda: ANGEL'S LAME. HIS HAIR GROWS STRAIGHT UP AND HE'S BLOODY STUPID.
